Airmen rememberedThe British Commonwealth War Graves plot within the Old Holy Trinity Church cemetery in Middleton honours those who lost their lives while serving during the Second World War at RAF Station Greenwood. Through those years, there were 28 airplane crashes out of Greenwood, resulting in 70 deaths: 27 of these men are buried at this site Since 1943, a “Decoration of War Graves” ceremony is conducted, now organized by Royal Canadian Legion Branch #1 of Middleton and CFB Greenwood, including placement of a single rose on each grave followed by a wreath laying service.

14 Wing Commander Colo-nel Pat Thauberger pressed pause during the trailer for the upcoming “Spiderman” movie, indicating things “might become a lot less interesting,” but he wanted to thank public service em-ployees before they settled into the feature show at the Zedex Theatre, a base Na-tional Public Service Week special event.

“The mission we have here at 14 Wing Greenwood is extremely important – search and rescue is out there on a daily basis, saving Ca-nadian lives; our Auroras are deployed overseas on Operation Impact, where we are making a difference in fighting Daesh and on the international stage. Some of you have contributed directly

Civilian workforce ‘bedrock’ of base business

to that capability and, here at home, you keep the base running.”

Thauberger acknowledge the “bedrock” the civilian workforce provides to all work at Greenwood.

“We’re here and then gone, but you are the continuity that keeps things running, and that’s not lost upon me as the wing commander, or on wing leadership. They echo my appreciation.”

And he also understands the civilian workforce isn’t working on his behalf, but to its own high standard of professionalism.

“You bring that to work, every day. Our motto, ’Oper-ate as one,’ is not just for the military here – it’s everyone: our regular and reserve mem-bers, contractors, civilians. All of us are part of what makes our wing and community vibrant.”

The golden shovel, the Princess Anne rose and the fresh smell of turned earth marked one of the fi rst occa-sions Colonel Pat Thau-berger had to consider the imminent end of his command of 14 Wing Greenwood.

The traditional plant-ing of a rose bush June 14 by Thauberger, joined by his wife, Kathy; be-gan with commanders from 1941. With plant-ings every two or three years, the garden is a grow-ing legacy tucked behind the VP Memorial at the wing’s

June 11, a Greenwood CC130 Hercules was tasked just after midnight, and air-borne just after 2 a.m.; in response to an EPRB transmit-ting approximately 350 nauti-cal miles east of St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador. The boat was reported as a 10

main gate.Thauberger chose a pink

rose, which 14 Wing hor-ticulturalist Zac Gubbins narrowed down to the old English Princess Anne.

“Look – it’s ‘low mainte-

nance,’” Mrs. Thauberger said, tucking the tag away as a memento.

14 Wing Commander Colonel Pat Thauberger and his wife, Kathy, were assisted June 14 by wing horticulturalist Zac Gubbins in planting Thauberger’s contribu-tion to the commanders’ rose garden. Thauberger’s tenure as commander began in July 2015 and will wrap with his change of commander ceremony July 20.

“That’s how I try and live my life!” responded her hus-band.

Thauberger wielded the shovel on his own, as several command team members and support staff watched.

“Why? You’re trying to see if I know how to work a shovel? I do shovel a lot of stuff!”

He was pleased with his rose bush planting, adding the pink adds “a little fl are and pizzazz” to the garden.

Gubbins spends time every season ensuring the rose garden is well-

maintained and all the plants are healthy. He has replaced a number of the original plant-

June 15, just before 7 a.m., JRCC tasked a 413 Squadron

Cormorant on a cruise ship medevac, about 250 nautical miles south of Halifax, heading towards Halifax at 17 knots. As the Cormorant and ship ap-proached, the distance closed to 200 nautical miles. A Her-cules aircraft was also tasked out of St. John’s to provide

top cover. The medevac was a success, with the Cormo-rant returning to Greenwood around 12:30 p.m.

June 18, Prince Edward Island offi cials requested the support of 413 Squardon’s Cormorant helicopter to help in locating an individual in

distress near Beach Point, PEI, around 6:40 p.m.

The local Coast Guard, Coast Guard Auxiliary and RCMP were also involved. The Cor-morant was stood down and returned home just after 8 p.m.

June 21, JRCC tasked a 14 Wing Hercules at 4:40 p.m. to

check on an overdue Cessna 182 with fl oats, north of Sept-Îles. Three people were re-ported on board. The Hercules left just after 5 p.m., and was successful in making con-tact with the Cessna: all were safe. The Herucles returned to Greenwood just after 8 p.m.

commanders’ plaque.“It can be hard to main-

tain,” Gubbins said, “but I love it.”


Captain Mary Cameron-Kelly takes any opportunity to fl y away, but there was no longer any avoiding the public recog-nition of her Royal Canadian Armed Forces career June 15.

The Greenwood Art Associa-tion unveiled its latest donation to the Greenwood Military Aviation Museum, a painting of Cameron-Kelly: the first female CP140 Aurora pilot, with a number of signifi cant milestones achieved in the over 25 years since, including being the fi rst female Aurora crew commander to fly on operation.

“This hasn’t been easy,” said art association president Brian Handley in front of a full house of family, friends and avia-

tion peers gathered under the wings of a heritage restoration Anson in the museum.

“Mary is slippery – we thought we had this teed up in April, but all of a sudden she had to go to San Diego on training. Just one of those trips someone has to do!”And, coordinating the event with 14 Wing Greenwood Commander Colonel Pat Thau-berger’s schedule was another logistic to overcome: “Colonel Thauberger wanted to be here – he has fl own with and has a long association with Mary.”

Thaubeger helped Cameron-Kelly lift the RCAF tartan fabric from the painting, created by Christine Handley.

“I’m not sure what it says when someone who started fl ying after me is in the mu-seum before me!” he said.

Captain Mary Cameron-Kelly, right, is now recognized in the Greenwood Art As-sociation’s collection, held at the Greenwood Military Aviation Museum, as the Royal Canadian Armed Forces’ first female CP140 Aurora pilot. 14 Wing Greenwood Commander Colonel Pat Thauberger assisted with the unveiling June 15. S. Keddy

“But, it is signifi cant what this represents: you’re a woman and, in the air force, we’re actively trying to promote the involvement of women in viable and rewarding careers. Look at the leadership of Mary, and her example, day in, day out. That is worth celebrating.”

For her part, Cameron-Kelly calls it all “a lot of fun.

“I’ve really enjoyed it.”She shared some stories

of fl ying and missions adven-tures, including camel spiders in camp, “creeping” up on other squadron aircraft, play-ing jokes and teaming up with the best souk shopper on the crew when overseas.

“I have made milestones for the next individuals, sure, and I really appreciate this recogni-tion. There is now someone coming behind us.”

Honorary Colonel Dan Hennessey,14 Construction

Engineering Squadron

Colonel Colin Keiver, 8 Wing Trenton commander, opened the base gates and welcomed the 2017 Honorary Colonels Conference to CFB Trenton May 31 to June 2. This year’s conference was a tremendous mix of briefi ngs, networking and tours of the many strategic functional areas of Trenton.

Close to 60 honorary colo-nels from across Canada used the opening meet and greet May 31 to rekindle old friend-ships and establish new ones with those who had assumed their role since the last con-ference in Borden. Royal Ca-nadian Air Force Commander Lieutenant-General Mike Hood gave all a warm welcome, and presented a brief overview of the next few days` schedule. The theme of the conference was Air Mobility and Search and Rescue, and attendees would receive hands-on and up close exposure to personnel, equipment and systems used to deploy the Canadian Armed Forces in response to national and international crises. Hood emphasized the RCAF contin-ues to serve as the `guarantor of Canadian sovereignty.

Day two found attendees at the Canadian Force Aerospace Warfare Centre, which is re-ferred to as the “engine” of Air Force transformation and the centre of excellence for air power development. The

morning consisted of briefi ngs from Hood who, as always, emphasized the importance of the honorary colonel pro-gram to the Air Force moving forward and stressed that each of those here were chosen wisely for their skill set, and that should never be taken for granted. Hood also delivered a comprehensive report on the direction of the RCAF, with a focus on what will oc-cur between today and 2030. He spoke about the release of the new Defence Policy, which will see a signifi cant invest-ment that will ensure the CAF remains a fl exible, responsive, combat capable force, pre-pared to deploy anywhere in the world, anytime. The new Defence Policy will also care for personnel, as everyone in uniform is a vital component of CAF success.

Major General Christian Dr-ouin, commander 1 Canadian Air Division/ Canadian NORAD Region, delivered a compre-hensive overview of RCAF operations across Canada and around the world, dealing with operational readiness and the personnel needed to complete those missions - whether it is search and rescue or NORAD commitments. The presenta-tion ended with the message of “Mission First...People Al-ways.”

Brigadier-General Dave Co-chrane, commander 2 Cana-dian Air Division, spoke about the ability to deliver advanced aerospace knowledge and leading-edge training through

a responsive, innovative and effect-based methodology to achieve maximum training effectiveness for the RCAF. He spoke of the importance of both 1 CAD and 2 CAD main-taining a strong relationship for a strong result.

Attendees also received briefings from the Fighter Capability Office, Air Force Development and the newest addition to the RCAF family, Space (the new frontier for us).

Following a morning of briefi ngs, the honorary colo-nels were divided, with half the group boarding a CH47 Chinook while the other half

hitched a ride on a C130J Hercules for a fl ight to Mounta-inview for parachuting demon-strations by 8ACCS. They saw one of their own, Honorary Colonel Jeff Stibbard of 19 Wing Comox, take to the sky in a tandem jump landing.

Back in the air, the honorary colonels headed to 6 Hangar to head inside the massive Globemaster aircraft, along with a number of other static displays, including a SAR demo, explosives ordinance disposal, MAJAID and the “Bird Man.”

The day ended with a tra-ditional Mess dinner at the

Offi cers Mess, where the dis-cussions certainly revolved around the whirlwind day we had just experienced, but also looking ahead to the last day’s activities.

The fi nal day turned out to be a mix of past and present. The day stared out with a tour of AMTC, where we were greeted by the command-ing offi cer of 426 Transport Training Squadron, a unit which carries out between 80 and 125 serials of 25 different courses every year to gener-ate operationally effective air mobility aircrew and techni-cians. The squadron also has dedicated personnel assigned to provide operational test and evaluation and system support to air mobility fl eets, and graduates approximately 420 personnel annually. The state-of-the-art facility offers real-world scenarios, and the equipment housed here gives those attending training realis-tic experiences.

We had the great pleasure of touring the National Air Force Museum of Canada, which honours the heritage of the Royal Canadian Air Force. This museum displays aviation his-tory full of valour and tradition

through a wide variety of ex-hibits, interactive activities and displays, including the fully-restored World War II Halifax Bomber (the only one of its kind in the world). Included in the 16-acre airpark are both historic and active aircraft on display for an up-close and personal aviation experience. Also in the airpark are some 11,000 Ad Astra Stones and 35 monuments that pay tribute to past and current members of the RCAF. The Halifax Bomber served as the perfect back drop for the 2017 Honorary Colonel Conference offi cial photo.

The last day also included closing briefings at 8 Wing headquarters from David Gin-gras, Canadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services, on fun-draising initiatives, and no conference would be complete without a historical fix pro-vided by the always engaging Honorary Colonel Stephane Guevremont.

Hood closed the conference, again stressing the importance of the honorary colonel pro-gram and the contributions of time, talents and personal resources that each appointee brings as they promoting their unit.

Thanks to all who attended the 14 Wing Greenwood Community Recreation Club Night June 16.

Over 50 guests attended the celebration, as Com-munity Recreation recog-nized wing clubs, volunteers, coaches, executive and mem-bers who give so much of themselves year round to benefi t the 14 Wing and wider community.

As part of the celebration, three special recognitions were announced. Crewe Mac-donald, of the Greenwood

Minor Hockey Club, was awarded youth volunteer of the year. Mark OKeefe, also from the Greenwood Minor Hockey Club, was named adult volunteer of the year. Club of the year was the Greenwood Players. All three awards are well deserved, and a great refl ection of the quality of all 14 Wing clubs and volunteers.

Come to the 14 Wing Greenwood Library and check it out! READINGO-POLY is the theme of our summer reading program.

On our board, discover ex-citing places and properties, from all across Canada, to “purchase” as you complete reading challenge and collect points. Pass “Go” and receive

two points. Don’t roll three consecutive doubles or you will end up in “Library Jail,” and will have to pay points to get out (if you do not have a “Get Out of Jail Card”)! Land on “Chance” or “Community Chest” and you may answer a Canadian trivia question, advance to a particular prop-erty or Go to Jail! For every point acquired by August 30, your name will be entered to win your choice of a girl’s or

boy’s 24-inch Shimano six-speed bike. Incentive prizes will be given out all summer, so come in often!

~ Obituary ~SMITH, Dylan James,

Kingston, NS

Dylan James Smith of Kingston, NS, died unexpectedly of organ failure on June 13, 2017 at the Valley Regional Hospital in Kentville. He was only 25 years old. Dylan had a heart of gold and would give the shirt off his back if someone needed it. He loved and was deeply loved by his family and friends. Dylan enjoyed the outdoors, had an affi nity for animals, and loved working with his hands. Dylan was also a talented and avid guitarist. Dylan is survived by his parents, Geri and Brian, of Kingston, NS; his sister, Shelby, of Halifax; his maternal grandfather, Pius, of Fox Cove-Mortier, NL; his girlfriend, Alicia McDonald, and her son, Evan, of Hantsport, NS; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Maternal grandmother, Jean, and paternal grandparents, Irene and Douglas Smith, predeceased Dylan and were waiting with open arms when he arrived in heaven. A memorial service, led by Minister Perry Cooper, took place on Friday, June 16, 2017 at 2:00 p.m. at the Middleton Funeral Home 398 Main St. 902-825-3448. The family asks that you consider donations to the Canadian Liver Foundation or the Kidney Foundation of Canada. Dylan’s loss is tragic, most especially because of all the roads he never got to travel. Online guestbook may be signed by visiting: www.middletonfuneralhome.com

This will demonstrate that you can always be counted on to do the right thing.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, if others can’t see your vision, you may have to forge on and hope for the best. Not everyone understands your brand of thinking, and you need to accept that.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, now might be time for a new career or a return to the workforce if you have been away. You just may discover a new identity through your work.SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Keep up the good work in furthering your relationship progress, Scorpio. Your commitment is even stronger than it has been in the past. This is a great step forward.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, discuss your social calendar with others so that dates do not get confused and parties do not overlap. This way guests will not have to pick and choose which events to attend.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Ignore any hurtful comments that may come your way, Capricorn. Your emotional strength is potent, and you can successfully ride out any storm.AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, if you are being called on to wear many hats at work, it is only right that you be compensated accordingly. This is a week for showing the bosses you mean business.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Remember tha t be ing in a relationship requires a lot of work, Pisces. Don’t keep your feelings bottled up and hope for the best.

June 10, a large group of Nova Scotia Girl Guides was honoured at the provincial youth recognition awards cer-emony at Spatz Theatre in Halifax.

This annual event presents the Lady Baden Powell Award, the Canada Cord, the Chief Commissioner’s Gold Award and several scholarships and bursaries to dozens of Girl Guides, recognizing “Girl Greatness.” Special guests were His Honour Brigadier-General J.J. Grant, CMM, ONS, CD, (Ret’d), Lieutenant Gover-nor of Nova Scotia; Her Honour Joan Grant; and Girl Guides of Nova Scotia Provincial Com-missioner Lorena Fortune.

Recipients of the Lady Baden Powell Award included 1st Berwick Girl Guides Cassie Landsburg and Jalyin Watson. This is the fi nal award in this level of Girl Guides, a three-year program for youth ages nine to 12, and the first for which Girl Guides are recog-nized at the provincial level. Leaders are Tracy Michon and Lisa Landsburg.

Recipients of the Canada Cord included Sophie Keddy, Grace Bernasky, Grace Hall, Lillian Thomas and Ava Rog-ers. All are members of 1st Berwick Pathfi nders, a three-year program for youth ages 12 to 15. The Canada Cord counts

Guiding awards represent depth of ‘girl greatness’ in Berwick

as a high school credit in Nova Scotia. Keddy is the youth alternate on a Nova Scotia-organized travel opportunity to Switzerland later this summer, while both she and fi rst-year Pathfinder Mollie Campbell were selected to take part in an Experiences Canada youth forum, Canada 150&Me, June 24 to July 3 in Ottawa. Leaders are Sara Keddy, Heather Cross and Tracey Rogers.

Recipients of the Chief Com-missioner’s Gold Award, the highest award Girl Guides of Canada offers youth mem-bers, included Norah Ber-nasky, Cassidy Joudrey and Maisie Campbell. All are 1st Berwick Rangers, a three-year program for youth ages 15 to 18. The Chief Commissioner’s Gold Award counts as a high school credit in Nova Scotia. Joudrey travelled to Australia in 2016 on a Girl Guides of Canada-sponsored travel op-portunity, while Campbell is looking forward to a two-week trip to Switzerland in August and September, as part of a 10-member Nova Scotia Girl Guides-sponsored trip. Camp-bell also brought thanks on be-half of Nova Scotia Rangers at the awards ceremony June 10. All were presented with their Youth Commitment Award pin, representing completion of every youth member year

available to them as members through Sparks, Brownies, Guides, Pathfi nders and Rang-ers. Leaders are Sara Keddy, Heather Cross and Tracey Rogers.

Seventeen members of 1st Berwick Pathfi nders and Rang-ers – 15 youth, plus Keddy and Rogers as leaders – are participating in an Experiences Canada travel exchange this summer. The Nova Scotia group hosts Girl Guides from Kingston Ontario, July 20 to 28 and are planning a few days at Hardwood Lake Girl Guide Camp, sea kayaking and the Fisheries Museum in Lunen-burg, tours of the Legislature and Citadel Hill in Halifax, plus a day at Pier 21; returning to spend a few days out of Ber-wick visiting Morden, Blomi-don and the Northville Farm Heritage Centre. They invite the community join them for a Canada-themed campfi re in Centennial Park, Union Street, Berwick; at 6:30 p.m. July 26. August 1 to 8, the Berwick group travels fi rst to Ottawa, for a tour of Parliament Hill, the Supreme Courts and sev-eral museums and the National War Memorial, plus voyageur canoeing on the Rideau Canal; before heading to Kingston to
